But for some other purposes, BiaB is just close to work well, but it's not yet above the degree where I can use it efficiently enough - and therefore I don't use it for those other purposes, which is a pity. >>

No. You've spent a considerable time writing but not about how "Simple Songform Creator - a dialog window" is helpful for new BiaB users. Most of this discussion has been about scripting this specific feature.

Unless I totally misunderstand the above conversation, you don't agree with swingbabymix. You're proposing a new dialog tool to help you do song forms in BIAB. Swingbabymix clearly states he's found his way with the program as it currently exists and that for him, it's easy to use.

Interestingly, you both registered as new users the same day.

No one has discussed any deficiency of the suite of SongForm Tools that already exist and reside beneath the SongForm Icon posted on the Main Page Tool Bars Menu.

We here on the forum can't know new users musical theory background and I personally find it unclear if in less than a month, a new user will know enough about the BIAB program to effectively suggest new options when they don't mention or discuss existing tools that accomplish the task.

I don't think any person that understands the song form concept should have any difficulty with BIAB's Songform option and this discussion hasn't even acknowledged a suite of tools for creating song forms in BIAB. It leaves me in a position that I'm unable to form an opinion of any validity to the Wish List request.

The better option to me is if one does find a tool too complex or too difficult to manipulate, then the discussion should start with questions, concerns and recommendations to improve any existing tools rather than ignore such existing tools and request a 'new' tool as if it doesn't already exist.
